Transliterated Text:

têm advânem ahurâ
ýêm môi mraosh vanghêush mananghô
daênå saoshyañtãm
ýâ hû-karetâ ashâcît urvâxshat
hyat civishtâ hudâbyô
mîzhdem mazdâ ýehyâ tû dathrem.

Translated Text:

Lord, this is the same road of good mind
You have shown me.
It is the religion of the benefactors
by which good deeds lead only through righteousness to happiness,
the promised reward for the beneficent,
a reward, Wise One, solely given by You.

Commentary:

Proceeding towards the goal, Zarathushtra sees that it is very path he has divinely realized. It is the religion of benefactors, a religion in which good deeds, done precisely according to the universal law, lead to happiness, eternal bliss. It is the reward promised and granted by Mazda to those who promote goodness.

Pondering Point:

“Deeds done to benefit all have divine bliss as reward.”
